Chicken Platter Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Add the chicken breasts and coat them well in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Charbroil or Blacken

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off excess. For charbroiled chicken, grill for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked. For blackened chicken, sprinkle additional paprika on the outside and cook for about 5 minutes on each side, or until a charred crust forms.

  3. 3

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the chicken from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
